Chapter 660: Chapter 660: Ice Snakes Dance, Chu Zhongtian’s Unexpected Surprise!

The fighting here had actually disturbed Chu Zhongtian long ago.

He initially thought that the frenzy of ice blades in the ice wind was caused by Lu Chen fighting with someone, and he wanted to go out to help, but he was worried that he couldn’t even withstand the ice wind outside, leaving him no choice but to hide in the crevice and silently pray that Lu Chen was alright.

However, when the beast magic the demon had used to hinder Ancestor Xuanjian and You Lingang from escaping this place reached him as well, Chu Zhongtian was also shaken.

"Impossible, although Lu Chen is strong, he is only at the Foundation Establishment Stage! Could it be that people from Haotian Sect have broken in?"

He couldn’t help shivering, having seen the letter from Kong Wu that Lu Chen had shown him and knowing about the plots of Haotian Sect.

If that was indeed the case, he was afraid that he was surely doomed!

"But I can’t escape this place, in these icy lands, I can hardly move a step!"

Chu Zhongtian stood up, anxious and flustered.

He was merely a Sword Cultivator, although Lu Chen had safely returned the Shadowless Sword to him, but the injury caused by the activation of Xuan Yun Sword Qi inside his body had not yet healed.

It was as if he was still suffering from an internal injury.

This would directly affect the circulation of Spiritual Power in his body, let alone escaping these icy lands, he couldn’t even withstand the ice blades hidden in the ice winds.

"Staying here is ultimately waiting for death, and I can’t walk out of these icy lands, so I might as well go have a look... and then later come back here to wait for Lu Chen to come to my aid! It’s just... in such a crisis, I don’t even know if Lu Chen is still alive!"

Chu Zhongtian muttered to himself, having decided in his heart that, regardless of whether Lu Chen was alive or dead, staying in the crevice was the safest option!

At this moment.

The Demon Qi reached this place, and behind him, at the very depths of the crevice, countless Xuanming Ice Snakes suddenly stood upright, hissing and issuing a shrieking sound!

"Huh?"

Chu Zhongtian quickly turned around, his surprised expression turning to delight in the space of a breath!

The Xuanming Ice Snakes were also demon beasts with spiritual awareness; although the mother snake had died, the residual Demon Qi on its body had been passed to these young snakes, making them grow extremely fast.

Their intelligence had also increased a lot, making them realize that Chu Zhongtian was not actually their enemy, and in fact, he had been protecting them in this place.

Now, sensing Chu Zhongtian’s worry, they were all indicating that they would back him up.

"Can you... can you do it?"

Chu Zhongtian had been staying here, bored to death, and had actually grown familiar with these young snakes, knowing full well that the young snakes could understand human speech.

"Sssss—"

A young snake as thick as his arm, the strongest among the group, slithered out, continuously nodding at Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian looked closely, noticing that some ice scales had already formed on the young snake’s body!

Not just on it, but on the other young snakes as well.

Seeing that Chu Zhongtian seemed somewhat incredulous, the young snake swam even further out of the crevice, boldly raising the front half of its body outside the crevice, displaying a greedy expression!

Chu Zhongtian instantly understood and said, "Are you saying... you can absorb the Demon Qi here?"

That Demon Qi, he could also feel it, but with his level, he couldn’t discern that this Demon Qi...

Was from an Ancient Ice Demon!

For the Xuanming Ice Snakes, the Ancient Ice Demon’s Demon Qi was greatly beneficial!

They could protect Chu Zhongtian and enhance themselves.

Naturally, these young snakes wanted to achieve both, entering the icy lands to seek the source of this Demon Qi!

"If that’s the case, then let’s go and explore!"

Chu Zhongtian’s eyes glittered with excitement, and after he agreed, the young snake outside the crevice let out a hissing sound, with countless young snakes swarming out, rushing past Chu Zhongtian, and drilling outside of the crevice!

Not only that.

These young snakes wrapped around each other, forming a wall of snakes!

Their ice scales continuously reflected the blue-white glow of the icy lands, somewhat dazzling but providing Chu Zhongtian with an endless sense of security!

"Hahaha, good, I never thought that I, Chu Zhongtian, would one day cooperate with demon beasts! Little snakes, if you aren’t afraid, then why should I be afraid of a damn thing! Charge!"

Chu Zhongtian, being a Sword Cultivator, was naturally bold and forthright.

Seeing this, he waved his large hand, and stepping onto his Shadowless Sword, he followed behind the wall of snakes, flying into the icy lands!

"Sss—"

The sound of the wind mingled with the hissing of the snakes, and Chu Zhongtian disappeared into the chaotic ice winds.

The ice blades that hit the wall of ice snakes were instantly turned into icy debris and blown away by the ice winds.

But Chu Zhongtian was unharmed!

Until, he sensed a familiar aura.

"It’s... Ancestor Xuanjian, he actually came!"
